Valentine's Day in China is a romantic festival. It is a thoughtful choice to make an origami gift for your partner. The following is a simple tutorial to teach you how to make a paper crane as a gift for Tanabata.

Material preparation:

Square colored paper (can be special origami or ordinary colored paper).

Steps:

1. Prepare a square colored paper. If you use ordinary colored paper, you can cut it into squares first.

2. Fold the diagonal of the square paper in half, and then unfold it.

3. Fold the four corners of the paper in half on the diagonal, and then unfold. In this way, you will get a cross-shaped crease.

4. Fold the four corners of the paper in half to the crease of the font, and then unfold it. In this way, you will get a smaller cross crease.

5. Fold the four sides of the paper in half to a smaller cross crease, and then unfold it. This way you will get a smaller square crease.

6. Fold the four corners of the paper into a small square crease, and then unfold it. This way you will get a smaller square crease.

Finally, fold the paper into a small square according to the previous crease, and then unfold it. In this way, you have completed an origami gift for Tanabata!
